Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

isofs: avoid memory leak in iocharset

A memleak was found as below:

unreferenced object 0xffff0000d10164d8 (size 8):
comm "pool-udisksd", pid 108217, jiffies 4295408555
hex dump (first 8 bytes):

[] do_el0_svc+0x2c/0x38
[] el0_svc+0x3c/0x1b8

The opt->iocharset is freed inside the isofs_fill_super function,
But there may be situations where it's not possible to
enter this function.

For example, in the get_tree_bdev_flags function,when
encountering the situation where "Can't mount, would change RO state,"
In such a case, isofs_fill_super will not have the opportunity
to be called,which means that opt->iocharset will not have the chance
to be freed,ultimately leading to a memory leak.

Let's move the memory freeing of opt->iocharset into
isofs_free_fc function.
